Made by Laura!

 I have had this pattern for a bit waiting for me to sew it. I loved the style of it, and the options. I kind of couldn't get over the sleeves, but I don't love gathering, so I put it off.  I put it off for a while... until I had the perfect fabric for it!  **Disclosure: I have included my affiliate link to the pattern used in this post.

I sewed it up in a couple of hours last weekend. It did take a tad bit longer than a basic tee, but I think it was worth it! The sleeves are so cool! I seriously love them! This pattern has several options for sewing it up including neckline options (a really cool almost-square neck in both a higher and lower cut option, and both a high and low round neckline). It has really awesome puff sleeves in four lengths, and two separate cut lines for a sho...

There are a few length options. The flared option can be made hemmed or banded for a fun blousy look. There are multiple sleeve lengths. And, after making the two different options, I can promise you that it took me longer to put the pattern together ...

I may have an excessive number of basic tee patterns. For some reason, I guess I just can't help myself ... I want to try them all. But without trying one, I may miss out on something really awesome. So there's a really good reason to try all the patterns, right? **Disclosure: I have included my affiliate link to this pattern throughout this post.

I always have small random scraps left from projects... you know the ones... they're not really big enough for much, but they're way too big to throw out!
